I love a good pub and I have no problem traversing the greater Houston area, no matter how large it may be, to visit something new, sample its food/drink, and experience its atmosphere. My quest for something new and different led me to Upside Pub, a neighborhood pub. I had already heard about this pub from a friend and was anxious to check it out and see what it had to offer. It’s a relatively small, narrow place, with space to hold about 30 to 40 people on the inside and another 30 to 40 on the outside. It has a few televisions and music playing in the background. The music is loud enough to notice, but not so loud that you cannot hear the person you’re trying to talk to, which is a plus. Parking is plentiful, and free, so no issues there. And if you feel like a round of shuffleboard or a game of darts, they have that as well. Upside Pub is a full- service bar and I am happy to report that they have about 15 beers on tap and another 10 in bottles/cans. This is quite good for an establishment of this size. I have visited pubs that were much larger than this that had half as many beers from which to choose. If beer isn’t your thing, never fear- there are plentiful drinking options, both adult and non- alcoholic. Upside Pub has a small kitchen and a small menu of pub grub. When I visited, they had just released a brunch menu and I took advantage immediately, ordering the Breakfast Burrito. It was quite good and a difficult choice, considering the many tempting options on the menus. I need to pay a return visit and try different foods from the main menu. I went straight for the brunch menu, but there are several items on the main menu that sound excellent, not to mention perfect companions for a glass of craft beer. I like visiting new and unique places for food and drink. Upside Pub is a friendly neighborhood pub with much to offer. It’s an ideal place for a solo visit or a small group, as it has the right ingredients for a memorable pub excursion.

Two thumbs WAY up for The Upside Pub! Opened for a little over two months in GOOF (Garden Oaks/Oak Forest), we thought tonight was a nice night to try something new. We weren’t disappointed! The inside and bar looked nice and cozy, but weather was nice so we sat on the patio that runs alongside the building. Nice setting, good music mix, games playing on a couple tvs but not at all overwhelming. Husband got their Patty Melt on Rye, we shared the Potato Latke Balls, and I got the Shrimp Roll. We loved it all! All the ingredients were super fresh. The fries that came with were also really good! Nice and golden/crispy on the outside but soft inside. We didn’t drink tonight, but we’ll be back next time to sit at the bar for beer and cocktails. Staff was also incredibly friendly and accommodating. So far, so great for The Upside Pub!

Stopped by here on my way to class. OMG, AMAZING!! I ordered the Upside Shrimp Roll, minus the avocado. Paige is fantastic! The chef, Victor, definitely made my food with love!! Thank you, The Upside Pub, I will be back!!

We are so happy you are in the neighborhood! Delicious food, great staff, awesome selection of beer, wine and spirits (including non-alcoholic bevs). We will be back! Patty melt was really yummy.

Best new neighborhood find! Service was excellent and personable and food was delicious! I got the California burrito and it was everything. Friend got the chimichurri sandwich and we ended up splitting each because they were both awesome. I will definitely be back and telling all my heights friends!

Friendly owners/staff. Bar trivia. Chimichurri steak sandwich was loaded with flavor. Mini pool was unique.

Owners, Paige and Andy are super friendly! The food is interesting and delicious. Paige welcomes everyone like a friend and seems to have the uncanny ability to remember everybody’s name….like one of my favorite sitcoms, “Cheers.” Love it!!!! Try this place! You won’t be sorry!

Matty was AMAZING, food was awesome. Not a big menu but definitely could find something you’d like. $20 mimosas pictures 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼 thank you so much!

Amazing ambiance and staff, eclectic menu, and a great selection of drinks!

Awesome space and great draft list. Reasonably priced and delicious food. Has cocktails as well! Service was A+.

Paige is the best! Great craft beer list and the food was phenomenal. We had the Boiled Peanuts, Patty Melt (cheese wings are amazing) and The Soba Noodle Bowl. We will definitely be back soon!

Pretzels were bomb and so were the deep fried potato balls. Chill vibe, great bartender and great drinks!!

I really enjoy this place. It's that neighborhood spot. Food is great, drinks are also great. Don't think the frozen will be too sweet. And dont prejudge the draft old fashioned. 😁

I love this spot. The food is on point every time, I particularly recommend the chimmichuri beef sandwich, the burrito, and the Cobb salad. Tap list is diverse and always rotating.

This Pub is not just any Pub, it's a family orientated environment. Everyone that comes in is treated equally and the food is amazing , hats off to the Chef and the bar tenders. Kaleb is very customer service orientated. Great job to the Owner Paige. Sorry if I misspelled your name Paige. 😆 Thank you for your service.
